Fleet Admiral Kong: The Rocks Pirates Has Another Monster

In Ares' mind, memories played like short videos, and he tirelessly watched his previous battles.

From fighting Fish-men to clashing with Marine Vice Admiral Garp, he meticulously observed every detail, striving to understand and contemplate.

Read a book a hundred times, and its meaning will become clear.

Ares hadn't watched them a hundred times yet; the time required for repeated viewing and slow motion was even longer than the battles themselves.

He also had to constantly combine it with his own understanding and experience.

It took a long time.

But the gains were also great!

He learned about the effect of air on attacks from Gai Ram.

Previously, he had also learned about "explosive power" from Marine Vice Admiral Garp, giving Ares a deeper understanding of Body Arts and Swordsmanship.

Many things he didn't understand before suddenly became clear.

Perhaps because of the fusion of a "partial" soul, the images in Ares' mind were clearer, his feelings were deeper, and he could see even more clearly.

In his mind, he repeatedly watched Marine Vice Admiral Garp's battle footage, learning how to control and use the "explosive power" in his body!

What Marine Vice Admiral Garp didn't know was that Ares was unknowingly stealing his fighting techniques.

Progress was rapid!

About an hour or two passed.

The door to the room was pushed open, and Ochoku, who had removed his golden battle armor, walked in.

He casually walked to a mesh hammock near Ares and sat down, looking at Ares and earnestly teaching him: "Ares, Captain Rocks is right, fighting can indeed hone a person."

"But you must know that if you sacrifice yourself in battle, your dreams will disappear and be shattered."

Ochoku knew that Ares had great potential. It was because of his potential and monstrous talent that he was different from other pirates.

He patiently taught Ares.

He hoped even more that Ares could go further on the road to pursuing his dreams, and even complete dreams that ordinary people could not imagine.

Ochoku felt that Ares was different from others, and said with a slight sigh: "So far, the pirates I've seen are all the same: pirates who drink heavily, pirates who indulge in women, pirates who are obsessed with gold, pirates who like to kill..."

"There are also very few pirates who pursue power, pirates who pursue dreams, and pirates who pursue ambition."

"Perhaps pirates don't indulge in something..."

"They probably wouldn't be able to survive."

"Even the powerful Captain Rocks is no exception."

An ordinary life was already gone the moment he became a pirate, and there was no turning back.

"I understand," Ares said, looking at Ochoku.

Then he asked: "Ochoku, the doctor said that the injuries on my body will take several days or even ten or twenty days to recover. Do you have any way to make my body recover sooner?"

Replaying the previous memories in his mind, the battle scenes made him want to train right now.

He couldn't wait to test the new things he had learned in battle.

Ochoku smiled and reassured him: "Let's wait until we get back to Hachinosu Island. You can go find Captain John then. Don't look at that guy drinking all the time."

"His medical skills are the best in the Rocks Pirates, and he should have a way to help you recover from your injuries quickly."

Speaking of injuries, Ochoku looked at Ares with some admiration and praised: "You were able to hold out against Garp for so long and take so many of Garp's punches without much damage."

"That's something to be proud of."

Marine Vice Admiral Garp was famous throughout the sea for his powerful "Iron Fist", becoming a nightmare in the hearts of countless pirates.

Many pirates feared Garp's powerful and fierce fists.

But...

Ares took so many hits and was still mostly fine, enough to brag about in the Rocks Pirates for a while.

"Not enough. Sooner or later, my fists will definitely surpass his!" Ares was dissatisfied with such a record. Losing was losing.

As long as he trained hard, he could defeat his opponent next time!

He also firmly believed that his fists would be even more powerful than Garp's in the future!

Ochoku smiled noncommittally, but did not discourage Ares. Instead, he encouraged him: "Then wait until your injuries heal and train hard."

"I'll go out first. You should stay in the room and recuperate, and listen to the doctor's arrangements."

After expressing his concern, he left the room.

With nothing to do, Ares, who was itching to train, could only continue to turn on the replay function in his mind and observe.

Without a mast, the pirate ship, powered by sails, was very slow on the sea.

Fortunately, Marine Vice Admiral Garp did not chase after them, perhaps because he was chasing the Byrnndi World Pirates.

Sunset and sunrise!

Repeated twice, it was already two days later.

Marine Headquarters, Marineford.

In the highest building at the heart of the fortress, Fleet Admiral Kong's office.

Gathered were a group of high-ranking Marine officers.

Kong tapped his fingers rhythmically on the desk, his expression turning serious and solemn as he listened to the report from Garp's subordinate.

Once the officer finished his report.

He finally spoke, his voice sounding deep and weighty: "This isn't good news. It seems another monster has emerged in the Rocks Pirates."

The fact that he could last so long against Garp meant the Marines couldn't ignore or underestimate his combat power.

Moreover...

They had previously received a secret message from Hachinosu Island that a newcomer had appeared in the Rocks Pirates and wreaked havoc on the island with Golden Lion, only to be stopped by Whitebeard in the end.

That person was none other than Ares!

Kong's majestic eyes swept over the other officers in the room, automatically ignoring Garp, who was picking his nose, and focused on Admiral Sengoku.

He inquired, "What do you think of the Rocks Pirates' newcomer, Ares?"

Sitting on the sofa in a black suit, draped with a justice cloak, Sengoku's expression turned stern. After a moment of contemplation, he voiced his opinion: "Judging from the intelligence, this newcomer is quite young and has immense potential."

"Anyone who can be handpicked by Rocks and promoted to a full member is no simple character. Even the newcomer Kaido didn't receive such an honor. This guy will probably become another powerful officer in the Rocks Pirates in the future."

Sengoku was well aware of Marine Vice Admiral Garp's strength. Although he suspected that Garp might have held back, Ares's combat power was undeniable.

His powerful and durable physique, along with his tenacious will, indicated that this guy would become another extremely powerful and terrifying pirate if he grew stronger.

And under the protection of the Rocks Pirates...

This potential threat, the newcomer Ares, would be difficult to deal with.

Sengoku's resolute face couldn't help but show a hint of worry.

Kong also sighed: "Now the Rocks Pirates have become the most powerful pirate crew on this sea. Besides Rocks, they have Captain John, Golden Lion, Whitebeard, Linlin, and a host of other powerful officers."

"They have so many pirates under their command that it's already... difficult to handle."

"And now there are so many newcomers with great potential. It's a real headache!"

The Marines had spent a great deal of effort gathering intelligence on the Rocks Pirates, as their every move could affect the entire sea.

Although the Marine organization had a large number of people and many strong individuals, the number of troops and warships that would need to be mobilized to deal with the Rocks Pirates was unimaginable.

War isn't solely determined by numbers. Even with two or three times as many soldiers as the enemy, there's no guarantee of victory.

Favorable timing, geographical advantages, and popular support are all indispensable.

The Rocks Pirates were an unprecedented "super pirate crew," where one small move could affect the whole situation!

Never before in history had such a powerful pirate crew existed.

Fleet Admiral Kong felt immense pressure, so heavy that it made him feel somewhat oppressed.

Garp munched on donuts, listening to Kong and Sengoku's worries, and stood up, saying, "I'm going to train. It seems my fists aren't strong enough!"

"This time, I'll practice on two mountains first, to make my fists even stronger!"
